The Media Rooms creates super high-tech homes, which are personal to you, whether it's a new build, refurbishment or renovation project. We use cutting edge technology to do really creative things. From High end home cinema and music in every main room though to advanced lighting control, the best movie servers, and home automation all controlled simply from your smart phone, iPad or single remote control, even from the other side of the globe. Having now clocked up 19 years of continuous training, experience and knowledge we are adept at pioneering fantastic designs and implementing them. We have successfully completed many projects in the UK, Monaco and Switzerland, Systems are often badly designed or old technology is used and the qualifying, planning and design phases aren't carried out with enough detail, care and attention. In the last 5 years the right products have become super reliable, and it hasn't been possible until now to offer this level of integration. We give you all the assistance you require to make the right choices for your design, and support you during the installation and well into the future. The technology adapts to you and not you to it. We are known for entertaining you at home and realizing your dream system and we leave you feeling that you must have more!

2. Your experience of having
Audio Visual, Media Streaming,
Home Cinemas or stunning
Automation in your home should
be nothing short of amazing.
The Media Rooms has been a
leading specialist in state-of-the-art
Audio Visual and Smart Home
Technology for over 20 years.
Traditional to ultra-modern
We have been privileged to work
on some truly fantastic homes -
some historic and traditional and
some ultra modern. Whatever
style of home, clients are still
looking for an amazing result. But
not everyone can deliver ‘amazing’.
BEFORE you decide anything
This guide outlines three critical
factors that you need to get right
in order to have a superb Home
Technology experience.
Three critical stages
Far too often these steps are
overlooked:
• Planning
• Designing your System
• Technology Selection
Always start here
We always start with a detailed
review of your needs. We come to
your home to discuss exactly what
you’re trying to achieve. And then
we do a thorough review of your
home.
If you want truly amazing results
then this important first-step
should never be rushed.
This is the same room from different
angles. The home technology in this
room includes audio, cinema, lighting,
heating and security and all controlled
from an iPad.
What you can’t see is the wiring, relays,
signal boosters and state-of-the-art amps
and speakers that make this room
simply amazing.
We make sure it’s amazing

3. Start by planning carefully
It is easy to become totally
captivated by the latest cutting-edge
technology. However, what’s
most important in the initial stage
is not to make snap decisions.
We help you clearly establish
what’s truly important to your
lifestyle. Yes, you can have the
super cool technology that your
dinner guests will marvel at,
but first answer the following
questions:
• What do you want the
system to do for you on a day
to day basis?
• What would make your life
easier and more efficient?
• Do you travel a lot?
• How do imagine Home
Technology will enhance your
lifestyle?
• How will your family and guests
use the system?
• Are you concerned about
reducing your carbon
footprint?
You will get more pleasure and use
from your system now and into the
future if you start by getting the
answers to these basic questions.
We are here to help you make
well-informed choices.
Our clients love movies and want full
image clarity and cinema sound
meaning they get a better and more
immersive experience.
What you want right now

4. This client wanted the latest design in
controls. But what if new features and
better controls become available later?
No problem, this is ready to go.
Planning for the future
Have you ever bought something
new that was soon eclipsed by
a faster, newer and more stylish
model?
A quality Home Automation and
Audio Visual system should evolve
with the times. But many do not.
Plans must be made in the
beginning to ensure that future
growth, updates, additions and
modifications happen smoothly
and you continue enjoying your
technology for years to come.
Future-Ready
At The Media Rooms we create
future-ready homes. We don’t just
sell equipment and move on.
We’re about creating ingenious
Home Technology experiences
both now and into the future.
Because we are thorough we can
predict what infrastructure you’ll
need for the future and prepare
for that now.
For example, we might install
additional cabling so you’re ready
to roll out updates or expansions
to meet new lifestyle or
technological requirements.
Careful planning - now - will make
any future changes virtually
problem-free. This is where most
other companies get it wrong.
This home is all wired-up for
smart technology like wireless.
You can’t see it but its there.
Future ready

5. Planning – Ongoing
We often see the frustration
experienced by people when they
don’t plan for the ongoing
maintenance of their system.
Occasionally when dealing with
complex installations, software
needs updating or equipment
requires adjustment.
Service Plans
Much like a prestige car that needs
a service, sometimes automation
systems need expert attention.
So make sure you take out an
ongoing service plan for your
peace of mind.
Impeccable aftercare
The Media Rooms offer you
reliable aftercare and support.
You will have support on-hand
rather than having to deal with
someone who isn’t familiar with
the intricacies of your system.
Your investment will continue to
operate as it was designed to.
The system ‘brains’ is concealed from
view and cool vented to prevent
excessive heat build-up. And will it be
easy to service and update?
Absolutely.

6. Just imagine this
You press the ‘movie’ button,
the lights dim automatically,
the popcorn maker starts and the
movie begins all from one touch.
Today, technology really can adapt
to your specific needs.
Attention to Detail
We have clients from all over the
world and we work with a variety
of impressive old and new homes.
We work around any existing
property features. Consistently our
clients tell us they love our
attention to detail.
Made to match
All of the equipment and
products we use can either be
totally concealed, (including
speakers), or can be customised to
match your colour schemes
and fabrics. They can even be
disguised as something else!
Attention to detail
No ‘wall acne’!
We can match controls to suit your
décor and they can be backlit for
added ease of use and safety.
And we minimise the number of
switches, keypads and panels on
your walls - otherwise known as
‘wall acne’.
If your Home Technology is wrong
it means more inconvenience for
you, but if it’s right you will get
maximum pleasure for years to
come.
These small details make or break
your Home Technology experience.
This is what we call ‘wall acne’.
We replaced all that mess with
just one elegant control.

7. Really clever
We are accredited by respected
Industry Regulators such as CEDIA.
Only the best companies invest in
training their staff and want to be
recognised for their service levels and
high-standards of work.
No wires
Wireless and hidden technology is
now the norm. You don’t see wires
hanging down the walls, behind
equipment and trailing across the
floors.
Strong wireless signals
We use clever room-mapping
technology to calibrate the room
for wireless equipment.
This ensures that wherever you
sit, you will get the best possible
sound experience.
Home and away and very cool
You can secure, monitor and
control your home, anytime and
anywhere, from one easy interface.
If a door is left unlocked you will
receive an immediate alert. When
your children arrive home from
school, you can receive a text
message, so you know that they’re
safely home. You can run a hot
bath, mix your favourite cocktail
and turn on the outside lighting,
ready for your return home after
a long day.
Whatever your needs we can
make sure that the technology you
choose is easy to use and totally
relevant to you and your family.
• Utilise hidden technology
• No need for numerous remote
controls - one interface can
control everything
• Advanced panellised lighting
for convenience, safety and
greater control
• Control and monitor your
home from anywhere in the
UK or abroad
• Receive alerts and messages
for security breaches such as
an open door or window
• Lock or unlock your entire
home with one touch
• Personalise everything so your
system enhances your lifestyle,
makes you more efficient and
gives you total peace of mind
and fun!
You can control your home from
your smart phone from just about
anywhere in the world.

8. A remarkable story
As a kid, Justin Wilkerson
was curious about how things
worked. Much to his mum’s
annoyance, he constantly pulled
apart radios and toasters!
“By 14, I was repairing
motorbikes in my spare time.
I later did an engineering
apprenticeship for four years,
worked with robotic machinery
and even did thermo-imaging
for microwave ovens.
“When I was studying computer
science I was offered a job in
the hi-fi shop where I bought
my own sound gear. I had a
huge record collection and a
great system that I built myself.
Friends started to ask me for
help buying and building their
systems because I took the
time to listen, I was precise and
designed their systems right -
it was as simple as that.
“Then I worked for a home
technology company that sold
customers the products they
wanted to shift, rather than
actually meeting customer’s
needs. The designs were ugly
and clunky, they cut corners on
installation and the customer
got a terrible experience.
“I still see too many companies
that operate this way.
“I promised myself that if I ever
started my own company
I would do things so much
better.
“I would find out what my
customers really wanted and
design around their needs.
It would be cutting edge,
it would look great and be easy
to use. They would get an
amazing end result with
impeccable aftercare.
Clients wouldn’t want to go
anywhere else.
“When you buy from me or my
partner, Dee, or anyone in our
team, you’ll get focussed
attention to detail and high
quality.
“Systems are well designed,
integrated, smart, intuitive
and simple to use - just what
an amazing Home Technology
experience should be.”
